Regarded as a ‘den of vice’ in the heart of Bristol’s bustling bar scene, the famed cocktail bar previously known as Red Light is on the market for the first time in almost a decade.
Award winning speakeasy bar Scarlet Lantern, located on Unity Street, is up for sale after nine years since its started as Red Light. Red Light had already built an exclusive following over the years as the city’s ‘top-secret bar’, and was reinvented as Scarlet Lantern in the same location.
While described as ‘the younger, more accessible, and hipper younger sister’ to Red Light's ‘boozier, suave big brother’, Scarlet Lantern’s boudoir-style area aimed to continue the business’s sex appeal and upmarket quality.
